I was under the impression that authenticated web access would require a CAL...

Q. Do I need a CAL for Outlook Web Access or Remote Web Workplace?

A. Regardless of how you connect to the Windows Small Business Server 2003-based server, you need either device CALs or user CALs. If you have chosen device CALs, then your use of Outlook Web Access or Remote Web Workplace will consume a CAL.

Also, say I have 10 user licences, and 10 device licences. How do I assign a user licence to a specific windows account, so that they can log in to the server from any computer on the internet? I am starting to think that Server-Based licensing was a better way to go, but SBS2003 doesn't support this, does it?

Depending on how you set up the CAL (many of us use per user) then it may effect the licences.

They way I take the above statement is say you have six users and six device CAL's all six users can be connected to the server. Should one user pop accross the road and want use OWA from an Internet cafe, then he'd have to either shutdown his machine or you'd have to buy one more device license.

So as long as your users aren't going to be logged in more than once at any one computer or time you should be fine.

Network Monitoring is essential to ensure that computer systems and network devices are running. Use PRTG to monitor LANs, servers, websites, applications and devices, bandwidth, virtual environments, remote systems, IoT, and many more. PRTG is easy to set up & use.

That certainly seems more reasonable than having to buy a device licence for every machine that might be used to log in to the server... Would you have to release this licence somewhere on the server, before it can be used on another machine?

But "per Server" licensing would solve the problem too, as there would rarely be concurrent connections... Can you tell me if there is a "per Server" mode in SBS2003, or is it all "per Device or User"?
